All U-M Students are encouraged to use The Career Center. It can help with career and graduate school exploration, applications and interviews.

Employment
If you’re looking for employment on-campus, be sure to visit the Student Employment Office.

PitE has several resources specifically targeted to the environmental job search:
Reference Library
We have a bookcase full of career exploration books, environmental directories, and job search skills books. They have to stay in the office, but are available to you during office hours (8-5, M-F). Sample titles include

• Ten Steps to a Federal Job
  
• Outdoor Careers
  
• The Big Green Internship Book: Internships and Summer Jobs for the Environment
  
• Resumes for Environmental Careers
  
• Washington (DC) Internships in Law and Policy
  
• “environ.jobs” e-mail group
  

You are invited to subscribe* to this e-mail group on the U-M directory. We forward to it all relevant job and internships that come to the office. At its busiest (January-March), we forward between 4-6 postings a day.
*To subscribe to the e-mail group, click on the "bind" button in the U-M directory. You will be asked to enter your UM uniqname and kerberos password. Once logged in, type "environ.jobs" in the search box. When it takes you to the environ.jobs page, simply click the "join" button in the upper left corner. You have joined the list.

Links Directory
We have compiled a list of websites students find especially helpful in finding environmental jobs. Look through these to see if there are any you want to bookmark for your own search.

• Professional Associations
  Some professional organizations provide career profiles and descriptions or post job openings on their sites. We have a list of Professional Associations that PitE students might be interested in.
  
• Graduate Study
  Graduates of the Program in the Environment go on to pursue a wide range of graduate studies. Our graduates are accepted to professional programs in medicine, law, public health, urban planning, public policy and social work. They also enter master’s and doctoral programs in fields such as Botany, Zoology, Sociology, Natural Resources and Marine Ecology.
  As you think about graduate school, but sure to look at these resources:
  
  • Tests and General Information
    We have links to some of the more popular graduate school information services and to the graduate and professional school entrance examination services.
  • Reference Library
    Our library includes several titles related to graduate school. They have to stay in the office, but are available to you during office hours (8-5, M-F).
